Can we get this thread like once a week or every other week or something? This is awesome
This is what Elmo wanted from us.
I was a single, almost 40 years old and happy but somewhat lonely dude 2 years ago.
Now I have a wonderful wife and my twin boy and girl are the sweetest little bunches of joy I can imagine. Additional, my mum sold her house and now we have enoth money to take a year of work and care for the kids together.
I’m tiered and, i am exhausted, but feel so endlessy blessed and happy every time I look at my wife or my children.
My cat. Sure its not recent. But my cat 😃
My garden in the back of my house started producing spinach, kale, arugula, and lettuce. Still waiting on the green beans, zucchini, and cucumbers. But the garden is absolutely blowing up. So I’ve been entirely invested in it.
This summer is my first ever in 42 years I have a “beach body”. I’m totally getting a sick Spider-Man costume for Holloween/comic con.
I picked up a 3D printer.
Me and my wife finally got an apartment after being homeless couch surfers for 6 months
That’s wonderful! Congratulations ☺️
Happy for you!
I crushed it in a job interview
Nice! I hope you get it, crossing fingers and toes for you
I was on Lemmy and saw a post where a user named TooManyPancakes (which is a lie!) asked everyone for some uplifting news to brighten their day.
It was a wonderful exchange! This caring person, with the poorly chosen user name, took time out of their day to reply to as many comments as they could, with uplifting affirmations of their own.
Completely made my day to see someone ask for help and then return it in kind, many times over. ❤️❤️❤️
Aw, you’re sweet! I just figured I probably wasn’t the only one that could use some positivity today
And for the record, it takes a lot of pancakes 😉
I got hired!
Granted, my bike was stolen pretty much immediately, but still! I’m exited to potentially not be broke anymore, once that first paycheck comes in.
Boo on the bike theft, but getting the job you were shooting for is rad as hell!
Thanks!
Gotta get that big motorcycle U lock, anything else gets wrecked by bike thieves. Kudos for the job!
I’m taking my health a lot more seriously now, and haven been able to lose 10kg since may.
Damn, that’s some good shit
Congrats!!
Keep up the good work!
Found a woman that is exactly as weird and different as I am, which I thought was impossible, I was already fine with staying romantically alone my whole life :)
Hell yeah! Fingers crossed for you!
It’s when you become comfortable being alone that you find the right person. I think it’s because the right person would never be interested in someone who is desperate.
My life happened to end but I came back.
Additionally, since I’m from Europe I am not bankrupt due to that.
Congratulations on your next chapter! A friend of mine had a freak cardiac event where his heart stopped for 7 minutes and they brought him back. Says he doesn’t remember anything except being home and then waking up in the hospital. Wild stuff.
Thanks!
For me it was almost 30 minutes but under low flow. The root cause is still unknown and I am neither the age nor in any risk group.
When the defibrillator is used you get medication that causes memory loss for around a day before so theres no memory for me.
Also got some wild medication and there’s a lot more to it but sufficient for now.
Best wishes to your (too) undead friend.
My post-surgery biopsy says no cancer, we removed the sad stuff just in time.
That is good news, indeed! May it always be so.
I finally unlocked the confidence to be the version of me that I want to be. Got the haircut I’ve always wanted, have it dyed the colour I want, I’m getting a new piercing soon, and I’m planning out the tattoo I’m going to get once I have some spare money. It’s been a journey to get here, but I’m so fucking happy with who I am and I no longer feel the need to apologize for being comfortable as my self.
Shit yes! Be unapologetically you, you deserve it. I’m super curious though, if there’s any more detail on the piercing and tattoo you wanna share (totally no obligation)
